Make sure you have the entire day blocked out!

Play this course once per summer, would LOVE to play it more often. My group just doesn't have 5-6 hours for a round. Doesn't matter if it's weekend or weekday. They load the tee sheet stacked 8 minutes apart. Ranger? They often have two at the first tee to make sure you paid. Say hello and goodbye you won't see them or any other on the course. It's a shame, my group and I all live local and wish we could play here more often. It's a great track, friendly staff and well kept course. I've often had to leave after 13-14 holes to make my sons ballgames at 5pm when we teed it up at 11am! Just can't do it but for once a year because it's local and a great course. We all just try to prepare ourselves mentally ahead because we know what's coming. A long long round!

Loved playing at Foxford Hills. There was an outing in front of us that made the course play slowly. There were also a lot of unrepaired ball marks on the greens.

A fair test

Mid summer and the course looks good. Greens are (aside from the un-repaired ball marks) smooth and roll true - the ball marks really aren’t too bad because it doesn’t seem like a lot of folks that play here actually hit the green. Fairways cut and play fairly tight. Play is slow at times and there aren’t any rangers on the course to keep everyone on time. Overall, this track will test your skills and your course management (if you want to score).

A Real Favorite

The course was in great shape, as always. This despite the fact that there has been very little rain before we played. Greens running true throughout all 18.
The course was very busy but pace was great for a Saturday getting around in 4:10.
What I really like about this course is that you need to be able to play a wide array of shots using all of your clubs. I used every club in my bag to get around. You cannot say that about all courses.

under appreciated course

this Course, from the tips, is one of the best in the northwest suburbs. It's got elevation changes, enough length to hang with the best courses, good green complexes etc.

only complaint, which I admit is always a tough one because it can be very situational, was the 5+hour round. we quit on 15 because there were 2 groups on the tee when we showed up. 7 minute tee times is not the best idea but that can be worked out, they had some big outing and it was a disaster for all who were behind it.

First Time Playing

Really fun and beautiful course

First time ever coming here, I’ve gone to many courses around the lake county area and by far this course takes the cake, right off the bat the staff was super friendly and polite. The snack/drink cart would drive around frequently, considering you’re playing a rather big course, whereas other courses they either don’t have a drink cart due to staff shortage, which is understandable, or the drink cart takes a while to come back around. Now the course itself in my opinion was the most well kept and beautiful looking course compared to others. Greens weren’t that challenging but weren’t easy, driving around was a bit of a struggle cuz if you get semi close to the green boundary, being that the cart is electric, it’ll stop and you have to reverse from there despite not being THAT close. Overall an awesome, fun course to play at and most likely will go back there again 👍🏼
